Thu, 02 Feb 2012 19:37:17 +0000windwhistle808053@https://en.forums.wordpress.com/NVM, everyone. I just found the problem. I had checked "static front page" in the settings. Thanks for the suggestions and sorry to have bothered you.

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 19:35:09 +0000windwhistle808049@https://en.forums.wordpress.com/@timethief Nope, a new test post didn't do it, although "Test Post" does appear in the widget for recent posts. I rather doubted a new post would fix it since the blog has worked properly in the past, with the most recent post always taking its proper place on the front page. I have no idea what's going on now.

Thu, 02 Feb 2012 16:17:30 +0000windwhistle807850@https://en.forums.wordpress.com/A silly problem but I can't figure it out. On my test blog at http://windwhistle.wordpress.com, I get a 404 error page in place of my home page. I've cleaned all the code snippets from the CSS entry page (shouldn't matter because I don't have the upgrade) and also tried several several different themes. I tried deleting the most recent posts. I also looked through all my settings and didn't see anything amiss. Nothing changes. I'm stuck with the 404. Anyone have any ideas what I've done?
